REPLAY - Subscriber Flow

+ (Supportive) Friend Thread - February

"Being held accountable is an act of generosity and compassion. It is a gift that someone gives us to correct our wrongs, unlearn, and do better for the sake of our own growth. It might be uncomfortable, but it is worth the discomfort."

Hi all

How’s your Sunday?

So, last Sparkle session, we started looking at one place our NEW subscribers (friends) might go to for information about our newsletter/ us/ them/ what’s on offer. ✨

Either the;

• About Post

• Hero Post

• Welcome Email (free, paid, founding)

Here’s the replay.

You might have time to think about this and do some more work on it? Don’t worry if you haven’t - I’m going to support you… I didn’t have this stuff the way I wanted for MONTHS and I change it all the time now. It’s a living, breathing opportunity to invite folks into your space here.

If you feel you have finished your brilliance on at least one of these pages (hero, about, welcome emails), you might be ready to have someone else look over it?

It’s totally optional but a lovely thing? We’ve done this before here at

Sparkle on Substack

and I titled it ‘critical friends’ - it' felt hard for some folks to make the time so it’s here again in a new evolution - I’m so excited!!

Remember - there’s a WHOLE workshop on Substack about pages here;

🌟 INTRODUCING - our VERY first

accountability, support-a-Substack-friend thread of 2024! 👯‍♂️🌟

I’ll introduce this concept properly in the call, BUT for those of you who can’t make it or plan to watch the replay I’ll explain here too.

You can use the comments in this post to put yourself forward for support from the

Sparkle on Substack

community whenever you’re ready! I’ll open a new thread mid-year…

Having cheerleaders and critical friends in our creative work is ONE of the best ways to better understand how your work lands. It’s also a great opportunity to discover your blind spots…

There is SO much magic there. It gets you out of your head and into the the mind of one of your subscribers…

Here’s the 5 step plan of what we’ll do… (completely optional of course)
